Best way to protect your home from a burglar. Leave valuables in open sight, unlock your doors, no alarm or security system, unlock your windows....

Then wait silently with a 12 gauge and once someone tries to break in. Blast their fucking legs and arms off....or balls....that way they are forced to live decapitated or with no balls. Or you can just blast them in the brains.

Do not let burglars know that you are on to them. When they get inside, end them for good. No sense filling the prisons with people that will get out all too soon anyway. Arm yourselves, & defend your property.

Never open your front door. Make sure people who know you, know to go to the back or side door. If somone knocks on your front door, be sure you can see your front porch, if you cant see through your peephole, somethings wrong. For you it might be call the police, for me , its a 12 gauge.

Invest in fake cameras too. Like have real ones but have fake ones right in sight, get a beware dog sigm even if you dont have a dog, motion activated lihhts, cameras inside, and honestly my favorite bit is the smart light bulbs that you can turn on with your phone far away and while ypu out turn it on amd off every pnce and a while like someone is in there. Leave the tv on too.

Thats given me a good idea. We have around 26 security cameras on our home (not all in site), and adding a few fake once lower down would give the burglar something to 'disable' thinking they are clear.

not only do I build my own custom doorsI also have three security gates that you have to go through before you get to my front doorthe first gate indicates no trespassing + I let the person reading the signfollowed by"booby traps active "followed up by military semi auto 12 gauge shotgun💨even the cops don't step on my propertyProblem solved

NEVER, EVER open your door for a stranger b/c if that rapist or burglar are desperate to score, when you open that door he will burst through, use the few sec. you have to get your weapon and ready yourself for a fight just in case he decides to break in after knocking!

By far, the best thing you can do is put a door security bar in place. I just use a 2x4 cut to the right length which can be braced against an opposing structure. If there's no opposing structure, get one from Amazon. You don't only have to worry about a kick in, you have to worry about someone with the skills to pick your lock and enter without making any noise. Nothing worse than waking up with a gun to your head, you can be sure of that. Use at least 3" screws on all your door hardware and put steel reinforced kick plates on your door jams and hinges. If you live in the country install a fence with a locked gate to keep people from driving right up to your front door. Criminals are going to think twice about having to walk from your gate up to the house.

Most important of all, always have a firearm ready to rock and roll. You are not the criminal, so don't listen to the liberal scum who make you out to be the criminal, for defending you and yours ... God Bless.

Ipso Facto. hey asswipe. most of us "liberals" are fine with someone having a gun who has jumped through all the hoops, is trained and is responsible. what I dont like are the complete dirtbags whose kids get a hold of their gun, or the creeps with 5 or 10 guns and who love conspiracy crap, or the ones "cleaning" it (usually a meth piece of trash) then it goes off and kills someone. idiot.

I’ve had several vehicles stolen or broken into throughout my years. In the 90’s it got so frequent that after a while I’d leave the door unlocked because I was tired of replacing and repairing the punched out door locks on my on my 1985 toyota truck. I would always disable the vehicles so that you would need to have a tow truck to get the whole truck. Often timed they would just steal my ash tray full of change. One time the fucker sifted through the ash tray and left all the pennies!!!!

This video just pisses me off! I want to smash these bastards over the head!

I'm going to hang up some of those fake wasp nests that keep real wasps from building their nests too close -- if I put the fake nests really close to a window or in front of a window would they deter a burglar too? Not many people in general want to tangle with angry wasps.
